Got it for $300. Needs carbs rebuilt due to fuel blokage. The bike is near new, black in colour and only 20,000km. Garaged since 1993. Another $500 and i'll...
Assuming that you'll be doing this yourself, I'd recommend you download the workshop manual from this site - then go and look for a GSX250F (Across) manual as...
Thankyou Carl, I downloaded the PDF's They were helpful! Do you know if the Across has alot in commen or just the carbs? Also where would I find this carb...
The Across has (what I believe to be) a later version of what's in the GS250FW, the manual won't help you with specifics (valve clearances etc), but it will...
Thanks, The carb cleaner worked so well it stripped the paint clean of the carbs!!! It took me almost 2 HRS to get the air filter box out??? Not sure how you...
Excellent :) Those air boxes are a PITA.. I found that I could pull the carbs out before the air box with quite a bit of force, but it is hard :) Someone ...
The GF250 (and presumably the GS250FW) has a 13000 redline.. Like many 4 cylinder 250s they operate best at higher revs, usually above 5000rpm. The gearing...
My bike reads 11,500rpm redline, but I read somewhere that they are 10% out which makes it 10,350rpm redline. I am not a speed demon and for that matter am...
Hi There, You'll find that the bike has more usable power (for a 250) above 5krpm, I'd be keeping it above that - just in case you need to accelerate away from...
Once again thankyou. I should imagine that I will have to rejet as the exhaust will not be standard anyway. Also I can only fit 2 filters not 4, and the K&N...
Hi, not sure on you revs but my 250gf red lines at 13,000..and is good for putting about at around 6 to 8 thousand revs. It has a dead spot between 8 and 8,700...
6-8000 rpm putting ? My car redlines at 6krpm ! So if I tried to ride my bike at 3krpm it would just stall? This must be why they aren't so good on fuel? What...
I used to own a GF250 previously. I can only say that I actually found that it would happily putt around town in 5th, though I found 4th in town a bit more...
Thanks for the advise, handy to know! SV650 that's exactly what i was thinking of.... For cutting in half! No seriously as a reverse Trike! I take it you own...
